Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method and apparatus for the treatment of cyclic physiological signal.
Background technology
To vital sign patient, such as breathing rate and heart rate, the requirement that has under the Intensive Care Therapy environment of hospital of monitoring from different to the requirement of patient-monitoring in public ward scene or in home environment.The intensive care unit(ICU) of hospital requires instantaneity and the high reliability of institute's monitoring parameter, and more pays attention to the trend of institute's monitoring parameter under the public ward environment of hospital.
Such as, proved that breathing rate is the good instruction that status of patient worsens, and it serves extremely important effect in conjunction with in other vital signs in early days early warning hospital system.Thus, particularly in the Intensive care ward of hospital, think and need to carry out monitoring continuously and reliably to breath signal.In the public ward scene of hospital or in home health care application, such as, in tele-medicine and chronic disease management, also there are similar needs, it is to the reliability of institute's monitoring parameter and immediately present and have not too strict requirement.Although the continuous monitoring of breath signal to extracting breathing rate from it can be obtained from the bedside monitors for intensive care patient, also in the various portable sensor system of exploitation thus allow with minimum uncomfortable property to public ward in the breath signal of mobile patient carry out clog-free and long-term measurement and monitoring.
In patient-monitoring, motion artifacts is a well-known problem generally, and it refers to by the physiological signal pollution of patient body activity such as caused by postural change, motion and talk and the deterioration of measurement quality.Particularly for cyclic physiological signal, from contaminated cyclical signal, extract correct changeable frequency obtain very difficult.Motion artifacts problem under public ward scene than intensive care unit(ICU) scene under more obvious, because the patient under public ward scene has more mobile activity pattern usually, and in the monitored most of the time, do not have fixed nursing to monitor, thus lack about body movement existence and measure the information of background.Even become more serious in the patient-monitoring of this problem under home health care scene.
In order to allow the reliable use of this continuous monitor system, this motion artifacts problem must be solved.Various signal recuperation scheme is absorbed in the research that major part has been reported, and wherein normally application self-adapting noise eliminates the signal polluted by motion with cleaning.There is several very formidable intrinsic difficult point in these schemes.Such as, motion artifacts may be caused by multiple noise sources of very difficult identification and estimation.Another shortcoming is that these schemes need very large amount of calculation usually, and is thus that efficiency is not high for portable system.
US5546952 discloses a kind of method and apparatus for determining the effectiveness of respiratory waveform from the signal with non-respiratory artifact, comprises the waveform parameter of monitoring respiratory effort waveform, this parameter characterization non-respiratory artifact.By this parameter compared with predetermined boundary to determine whether effective respiratory waveform to be detected.This is useful in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea, wherein, when effective respiratory effort waveform can be obtained, the electricity irritation of patient will be limited to the expiratory phase of breathing cycle validly, and when effective respiratory effort not detected, suppress electricity irritation.Selected monitoring waveform parameter can be such as Inspiratory rise time, inspiration peak time, air-breathing start the time, the time of air-breathing peak to peak, the time of expiration peak to peak that terminate to exhaling or breathe breathing time.The initialization of breath signal analytic process occurs when system is opened or reset, and wherein this system tracks several breathing cycle is to arrange amplifier gain and to set up the normal morphology parameter of waveform.Relative to last time air-breathing beginning and Time Created benchmark, thus can calculate the beginning of prediction of breathing next time, it stimulates and the breathing cycle for the synchronous electric when effective respiratory effort waveform.Although this method does not adopt adaptive noise cancel-ation, its object is still to provide the instant reliably breath signal based on peak one by one, and this is very important under Intensive Care Therapy scene, but it is not the prerequisite under public ward scene.
Summary of the invention

The schematic embodiment with schematically illustrating the device being suitable for treatment cycle Sexual Physiology signal of Fig. 8.
Detailed description of the invention
Illustrate to flowchart illustration shown in Fig. 1 the embodiment of the method for the treatment of cycle Sexual Physiology signal.In step 1, use sensor on the appropriate location being arranged in object (be people at this example) to catch cyclic physiological signal in this embodiment.But the patient in this people's hospital intensive care portion, but the patient that also can be public ward portion of hospital, the patient in this public ward portion of hospital is more mobilely and comparatively strictly do not monitored compared with under Intensive Care Therapy environment.In addition, this people can be arranged in the home environment of himself.Sensor such as can comprise the multiaxis accelerometer being suitable for producing accelerometer signal, and the instruction of this accelerometer signal is along the acceleration of different spaces axle.In this embodiment, this multiaxis accelerometer is suitable for producing the three axis accelerometer of instruction along three accelerometer signal of the acceleration of three orthogonal space countershafts.Such as, the three axis accelerometer of STMicroelectronicsLIS344ALH or KionixKXM52 by name can be used.But, the multiaxis accelerometer of other types also can be used to produce the accelerometer signal of instruction along the acceleration of different spaces axle.But the breathing of cyclic physiological signal people or heart beating.Breathing rate is one of most important vital sign in patient-monitoring, and it has been proved to be the good instruction that status of patient worsens, and it such as, in conjunction with other vital signs, heart rate, plays extremely important effect in early days in early warning hospital system.
In the step 2 of Fig. 1, definition period and at that for the moment interim collection physiological signal.This period contains two or more physiological signals cycle, preferably at least five cycles.According to the type of monitored physiological signal, typically be several seconds this period or tens seconds.Such as, classify and may be selected to be this period from 30 seconds to one minute, wherein can contain about 5 to 30 breathings for breath signal, this is the exemplary frequency range breathed.
In step 3 of figure 1, from the signal segment in the period defined in step 2, extract the value of one group of predefine parameter.This parameter and their value are from such as time, frequency and space coordinates, that is, the various aspects of the position in space, characterize the signal segment in current period.In order to grasp the specific characteristic of such as breathing or heartbeat signal, the particular characteristics of this signal can be defined.Such as signal variance, the value of peak to peak and temporal correlation according to the characterisitic parameter of time.According to the characterisitic parameter of frequency be such as basic frequency and spectrum entropy.It is such as the dependency between three the orthogonal space countershafts measured with three axis accelerometer according to the characterisitic parameter of space coordinates.By the typical respiration signals of accelerometer measures, there is low signal variance, with the frequency of 0.05Hz to 2Hz scope for the cycle, and there is very strong between centers dependency.Each signal segment is mapped on the point in parameter space by the value of the parameter extracted.
In the step 4 of Fig. 1, based on this group predefine parameter extracted in step 3 value and by the signal segment classification in period of defining in step 2.But the signal segment in this classification current period simply good-difference class, whether the signal of its instruction in current period is similar to such as breath signal.This classification also can obtain being subject to about physiological signal, such as motion artifacts, the instruction of the degree of pollution.
In the step 10 of Fig. 1, verify whether should define next period.If need not define next period, such as, owing to reaching the end of signal, so the method stops in a step 11.If and/or can should define next period, so the method returns step 2 and defines next period.This next period can be adjacent to previous period.Alternatively, this next period and preceding epoch overlapping.By applying the overlapping of two periods in succession, the temporal resolution improved can be realized.After defining next period, the method proceeds step 3, the value of one group of predefine parameter is wherein extracted for the signal segment in this period, then be step 4, wherein based on this group predefine parameter extracted in previous steps value and will be positioned at this period signal segment classification.When this period and preceding epoch overlapping, such as when two in succession period overlapping 50%, a half data in current period is from analyzed in previous steps and the preceding epoch be classified, and in current period, only has the data of half to be new and not analyzed.Classifying step uses the value of the parameter derived for whole current period in this case, but only by the new part classifying in this period or be labeled as such as good or difference.
Fig. 2 schematically and schematically illustrate the example of the breath signal 30 according to the time, the wherein period for block signal analytic definition.In Fig. 2, the trunnion axis of curve chart represents time of arbitrary unit and vertical axis represents the amplitude of the breath signal of arbitrary unit.Fig. 2 illustrates this embodiment and applies in succession overlapping period.First period and the second period overlapping, and the second period and the 3rd period overlapping.Other periods in the plot after not shown then period.According to the method illustrated in the flow chart of Fig. 1, defined for the first period first in step 2.In the step 3 and 4 of Fig. 1, analyze the part of the breath signal 30 in this first period, comprise the value first extracting first group of predefine parameter, then by this part classifying of the signal 30 in this first period.In next one circulation, defined for the second period, and collect the data of the part of the signal 30 in this second period, and use it for the value extracting second group of predefine parameter for the signal segment in this second period.Due to classified in previous classifying step first time the interim part overlapping with the second period, therefore in this embodiment, in a category signal 30 in the part in the second period not with the part that the first period is overlapping.Then defined for the 3rd period, and be collected in the data of the part of the signal 30 in the 3rd period, and use it for the value extracting the 3rd group of predefine parameter for the signal segment in this 3rd period.Due to classified in previous classifying step second time the interim part overlapping with the 3rd period, therefore in this embodiment, in a category signal 30 in the part in the 3rd period not with the part that the second period is overlapping.Repeat these steps until with containing whole signal 30 (not shown) period in succession.The good tradeoff can propagated for the temporal resolution of classification and the motion artifacts on period in succession optimizes the amount over overlap in succession between period.This period of the time period of each signal 30 of having classified slides thus provides signal analysis and the classification of segmentation on signal 30.
Illustrate to flowchart illustration shown in Fig. 3 another embodiment of the method for the treatment of cycle Sexual Physiology signal.In Fig. 3, illustrated method is the expansion of graphic technique in FIG.The step 1,2,3,4,10 and 11 of Fig. 1 is the same step in Fig. 3.In this embodiment, after step 1, step 12 provides the adjustment to the signal of catching in step 1.The adjustment of signal can comprise, such as, filter signal with the quality improving signal before analytic signal in the next step of the method.Such as, the filtration that step 12 comprises signal makes to pass through with the frequency of breathing or the possible frequency of cardiomotility is corresponding.Particularly, filtration step can be suitable for filtration frequencies the typical heart rate between 0.5Hz and 4Hz or frequency range are passed through.It should be noted that this corresponds to occur or about 30 to 240 pulsatile heart rates per minute in the scope between about 0.5Hz to 4Hz by the dirty mechanical vibration caused of pulsatile heart in the frequency range that accelerometer can capture between about 5Hz and 20Hz.After the envelope obtaining signal after filtration, application filters the band filter of the frequency range of heart rate to produce the signal being used for heart rate and calculating.Also may in order to determine that respiratory frequency filters the signal of frequency range between 0Hz and 2Hz, and trap signal makes only by the frequency range between about 0.5Hz and 4Hz in order to determine heart rate frequency.The combination of these two frequency ranges or another frequency range are also optional.In this embodiment, in step 2, collect the physiological signal be conditioned selected period.
In the step 5 of Fig. 3, be good or difference based on the signal segment determined in current period the classification results of signal segment in previous steps 4, that is, will be accepted or be rejected.Such as when breath signal, signal segment in current period is similar to breath signal, classified as well or acceptable, and the motion artifacts caused due to the body kinematics of such as people when it pollutes and is not similar to breath signal, it is poor or unaccepted to be categorized as.If accept the signal segment in current period in steps of 5, so in step 6 for frequency or the speed of the part computing cycle signal of the signal in current period.Due to signal segment be classified as well and be thus similar to required physiological signal, the frequency therefore calculated for this signal segment or the value of speed will be reliable values.Such as, when breath signal, calculate breathing rate in step 6 and calculate pulse rate when heartbeat signal.The breathing rate calculated and/or pulse rate can be shown (not shown) over the display.On the other hand, if refuse the signal segment in current period in steps of 5, so by the frequency that do not calculate for the signal segment in this period or speed.In this case, the signal in current period is not similar to required physiological signal, such as, breathe or heartbeat signal, and will cause inaccurate value for the breathing rate of this signal segment or the calculating of pulse rate.In order to strengthen the observability being rejected signal segment, can by illustrate the display according to the signal of time contains on the signal in this period coloured band and by this time interim signal segment be labeled as poor or unaccepted.
